Scream Phoenix Lyrics - Singles - Cannibal Ox

[Vast Aire] 

I know cats are on some shit 

But we about to elevate right now 

Bout to scream Phoenix. . . 

[Vordul] 

Mega, Allah's stars seen only afar 

The physical of ma chosen, my craft is balls 

We rebels righteous, and stand and scowl in the heightness 

Rep life, graf artists and ghetto writers united 

Starvin' with one table and no mic 

And still get it on bombin' and flow nice 

Spit vomit and throw dice 

Taking chances with life trying to get by 

And stop all the time trying to get high 

Gotta clear mind and stay focused, avoid serpents 

And worship life, we like merchants 

Street peasants with these lessons 

Live, build, and pass away, and keep stressin' 

Thinking how we gonna master days 

With passion, that's why we rap this way 

From Manhattan 115 to 135 

We pigeons became phoenix with open mind 

To open yours, flow the raw innovative 

Phoenix 

[chorus] 

so when you see me shine light (better scream phoenix) 

the god locked in a cell (scream phoenix) 

moms can't post bail (you gotta scream phoenix) 

Jésus on a crucifix (scream phoenix) 

Jésus on a crucifix (scream phoenix) 

Jésus on a crucifix 

[Vast Aire] 

Yo, birds of the same flock together 

Congested on a majestic * cuts off * no! no! no! 

My feathers and flames are one skin 

Hallowed be Thy name in the beginning there was no sin 

We in the ninth inning, and I'm God body trying to win 

Flying against the wind 

But now my shell is weightless and fireproof 

But the truth is I'm proof of living fire 

I'm not made of organics, not even wires 

Just felt my body light up and hurt the choir 

See to the common fowl the phoenix is Sire 

Most high of all things to ever have wings 

Existence is struggle, resistance is futile 

Meanwhile we now possess the power of ten suns 

To transcend and elevate into one 

Famine, disease and senseless dieing is done 

Pigeon bird got a breath left 

Heart beat no more 

Phoenix bird morph and we live off the G-force 

[chorus] 

scream phoenix 

the god locked in a cell (scream phoenix) 

moms can't post bail (scream phoenix) 

Jésus on the crucifix (scream phoenix)
